Description/Abstract

"The ultimate goal of the project is to create a "game stadium" where all the risk factors and building methods can be tested one by one or all at once on real buildings and building components. A stadium of this nature will allow the United Nations to test its structures on a country by country basis in order to aid the nations most at threat before a risk becomes realized, while still keeping the facility itself safe from harm. In this way, the project will live up to Fuller's own approach of being comprehensive, anticipatory, a design strategy, and a science-based methodology that works to benefit all of humanity."
